I’m really enthusiastic about this recipe, since I mastered the technique I never bought sun-dried tomatoes again, the ones you can do at home have the same authentic delectable taste.

6 tomatoes

3-4 sliced garlic cloves

herbs like oregano, rosemary, basil to taste

olive oil

Wash and dry the tomatoes.Cut them in halves, scoop out seeds and excess liquid with a spoon. Put them directly on the microwave carousel without touching each other (cut-side up). Microwave, uncovered, on high for 3 minutes, then remove any excess liquid. Repeat this operation as many times as you need (time will vary depending on size of tomatoes and microwave ) but will be around 7 -8 times.

When they are dried out (but still soft) allow them to cool, they will dry out more once cooled.

When the tomatoes are cool, place them in a clean glass jar and layer with the sliced garlic and herbs, Cover with Olive oil. They can be stored for months.
